Product Description

This Arrowhead WATER FLANGE ON HEAD is a crucial component in your vehicle's cooling system, responsible for directing coolant flow between the engine head and the radiator hoses. Designed for select Seat and Volkswagen models, this water flange ensures efficient coolant distribution to help regulate engine temperature and prevent overheating. Its durable plastic construction includes multiple hose connection points and a secure mounting flange for reliable installation on the engine head.

Compatibility includes various Seat and Volkswagen vehicles, such as those with the 1.8 GTI engine typically found in models like the VW Polo 9N (2002-2009). However, always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing an order, as variations can affect fitment.

Common symptoms of a failing water flange include visible coolant leaks around the engine head, low coolant levels, frequent engine overheating, erratic temperature gauge readings, white smoke from the exhaust, and a noticeable smell of coolant. You may also notice puddles of coolant under your car or a sudden drop in heater performance.

If you detect any of these issues, inspect the water flange for cracks or damage and replace it promptly to prevent further engine complications. Regular inspection is recommended, especially if your vehicle is experiencing cooling system problems or has high mileage.
